What is Meant by Reaction Coordinate

which is not necessarily an energy minimum with respect to the 

H B coordinate. Similarly, the product-like species A..H-B corresponding 

The Marcus relation, Eq. (19.6), is clearly not a linear relationship between the activation energy and the reaction asymmetry but a quadratic one. The first derivative of AEt with respect to is equivalent to the Bronsted coefficient a in Eq. 

Leffler [10] had proposed that the slope of an empirical linear correlation between log k and log K (i.e. of AG4 vs. ACj j,) could be identified as a parameter measur-
